Christmas is a special time of year for many people, and for others who don\u2019t have anybody to share it with, it can be equally difficult. Recently, due to COVID-19<\/a> restrictions, Christmas has been a little different in care homes. There’s been a greater emphasis on safety \u2013 but this has only driven people to become more creative. After all, there’s more reason than ever to provide a feeling of normality and ensure others aren’t facing the pandemic alone.<\/b><\/p>

Small social events can have a huge positive impact on a lot of people over the Christmas period. Certain restrictions do make arranging activities a challenge but with a little planning, you can make it safe, festive and fun for your residents.\u00a0<\/p>

Here are eight activities you can organise in your care home to spread some holiday joy this year.<\/p>

[Please note: Government guidance has changed since this blog was originally published.]<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

1. Carol singing<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

There are\u00a0few\u00a0things that\u00a0will\u00a0instantly raise festive spirit\u00a0among\u00a0a\u00a0group of people at Christmas \u2013 but singing\u00a0seems to have a magical effect. Perhaps Christmas carollers know this better than anyone, as they go door-to-door spreading cheer. However, your residents\u00a0can still do this from\u00a0the safety of your care setting by\u00a0singing along\u00a0to the radio\u00a0or a CD. You can also find TV shows to watch on\u00a0demand like Songs of Praise, which normally have carol-themed episodes that you can join in with.<\/p>

If you\u2019d like to share your talents, consider putting on a virtual show for family and friends through a video performance. The government has advised that limiting the number of people in a group,\u00a0providing\u00a0a\u00a0well-ventilated\u00a0area, and keeping at least one metre apart, can reduce the spread of germs indoors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

2. Christmas themed quiz<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

How much Christmas trivia do your residents know? Can they finish the lyric to what happened on the ‘twelfth day of Christmas’? Can they guess the French name for Santa Claus? Do they know where the Christmas tree originates from?<\/p>

This will need to be an individual quiz, so keep it light-hearted and simple by providing multiple-choice answers. Test their knowledge on subjects that hold personal meaning, for example, by including the authors, actors and singers from famous Christmas books, movies and songs. It will be sure to jog some memories and spark conversation afterwards.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

3. Be crafty<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Decorate your home with hand-made festive decorations, or make them for loved ones to display in their family homes. Reduce the need to share by giving your residents a selection of materials that’s exclusive to them, or have them write you a list of what they would like to work with. Paper mache tree decorations, knitted or crochet ornaments and accessories, Christmas cards and wire-framed wreaths are popular choices.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

4. Christmas movie evening<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For many families at Christmas, it\u2019s tradition to gather round the TV and watch a movie or two. Care home staff and residents are a different kind of family, and sometimes can be closer than the real thing. Bonding over a movie remains an easy and cost-effective social activity, and one that is easy to maintain social distancing. From classic films that we\u2019ve seen dozens of times, to modern releases, you can take your audiences on adventures from the comfort of their own chair.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

5. Organise a Christmas buffet<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Christmas has been programmed into all our senses, including taste. Eating and drinking certain food items can create a nostalgic effect. Putting on a basic Christmas buffet of mince pies, cheese and crackers, cranberry sauce and party foods, paired with tea, coffee, Baileys, sherry, port and Christmas pudding for dessert, is a simple but favourite way of spreading holiday cheer in a social environment. To reduce the risk of spreading germs on food, you can provide a table service event.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

6. Bake Christmas treats<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

If you have the time, resources and facilities to bake, it can be a delicious way to get everyone involved in something a little different. Residents can assist in planning and decorating Christmas-themed treats like gingerbread\u00a0tree decorations,\u00a0Santa hat cupcakes\u00a0or\u00a0snowball\u00a0cookies. It will smell great\u00a0and you can even sell the bakes to visitors or staff to support a charity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t

7. Christmas classics storytelling<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

No matter your age, you can\u2019t beat a good story \u2013 especially\u00a0when it comes to the\u00a0Christmas classics your residents will remember from their childhood.\u00a0You can find\u00a0audiobooks and podcasts on platforms like YouTube, Spotify\u00a0and Audible.<\/p>

Alternatively, someone can volunteer to read\u00a0a book, or even write their own Christmas story.\u00a0This is a perfect alternative for those with poor eyesight who may not\u00a0be capable of watching television.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

8. Write Christmas poems<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Poems come in many shapes and forms and are unique to each individual. They offer a creative outlet to express yourself and anyone can write them. They can rhyme, have humour, or be short and sweet like a haiku. There are no rules.<\/p>

Recent hardships have evoked different emotions from everybody. Large numbers of people wouldn\u2019t have had many visitors or will have been stuck indoors for long periods of time. Consider asking your residents to reflect on what Christmas means to them and then host a group reading session to share their work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Bonus: Make New Year\u2019s resolutions<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Christmas festivities are usually first on the agenda. It\u2019s a chance to celebrate and take your mind off certain events, but as we approach the end of the year it\u2019s a good idea to look ahead and plan our future goals.<\/p>

Making New Year\u2019s resolutions is a good opportunity to think about what can be improved going into next year. Do you want to do more exercise or spend more time doing an activity, or learn a new skill or technology? Having something to look forward to can be just as important as having a good time in the present.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Using CareDocs<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

You can plan\u00a0and record\u00a0your individual or group events using CareDocs.\u00a0It\u2019s crucial that notes are recorded when an event happens so there is a log of useful information to relate back to. Our Daily Note<\/a> feature allows you to write text notes for a wide variety of health-related, personal and leisurely activities.<\/p>

You can\u00a0keep track of who attended and how it went,\u00a0as well as\u00a0record the emotions<\/a> of those people involved.\u00a0Events are easily searchable, and if you have one coming up,\u00a0CareDocs\u00a0will let you know.<\/p>
